Shards of Glass
Farzana Quader
In Shards of Glass, we meet three women - Jhuma, Tanya, and Angela - as they navigate their way through their own individual challenges and life-changing decisions. Although initially strangers to each other, the three share a common bond in their desire to do good, defy the conventions that hold them back, and to do work that lifts those without a voice. United in a mission to help the Indian tribes retain their rights and their land, and to fight against political corruption, accounts of their humanitarian work cross over with personal struggles as they endure love, loss, and grief. In their own ways, the three must come to terms with their own changing perspectives of the world, and their purpose in it, as their destinies converge on their shared plight for justice.
